yeah "write every day" makes me collapse into a ditch. dog i live alone and work full-time, i consider it a win if i manage all my household chores and dinner on a weekday night

good would be 'write frequently at a sustainable pace as one tool in your kit to keep your skills sharp & promote growth / experience'

and 'document your progress every time so you build a data set you can objectively reflect on and go, whoa! ive grown a lot! and i have a cool learning portfolio to show!'

bad is 'kill your darlings (any idea you have that does not serve explicit utility for a commercial audience is scraps to be thrown in the trash) (rather than simply asking if it fits & backlogging it in an 'ideas' notebook)

...ah. i should probably examine whether my writing every day is actually helping me

"show don't tell" when interpreted literally sucks ass. you can show by telling and vice verse, the important thing is being aware of which you're doing
